Glory to the Trillium, the Heleborus, and the Haiku!

I WILL now take leave of our regularly scheduled posting, to bring you a few haikus I have written as my own humble way of honoring the coming of spring. All hail the tulips stretching upward toward the light! Praise be the daffodils, for they will make you weep at their delicate beauty! Glory to the trillium and to the heleborus, whose weird names belie the soft petals and vibrant colors of the maker's most amazing bloom'd creation.

Cold, crackly, dry grass --

Make way for earth's green glory.
Sing, Hallelujah!
–

Oh, chattering birds!

Would that you might fly elsewhere!
Make your home next door.

–

Birds take wing'd flight,
yet breeze warns winter lingers;

Fuck'd. (surprise!) Blizzard.

In the Cause,

Dr. T. Shandy
